What's a rectangular quadratic integer lattice?
Is it, by some far fetched possibility, Z^2 with the product
order, ie (j,k) <= (n,m) when j <= n, k <= m. Or do you
simply mean Z^2 with no lattice order?
I suppose are there four kinds of steps, up, down, left, right
and if some steps are missing, tough.
Now what the heck is a lattice path? Any finite path.
Any finite path from a point?
Any finite path from a point to another given point?

What constitutes the step (1,2)?

I'm dubious as you wright stream of conscious nonsense comprehensible
